Mu Yao didn't know that Su Zhen was acting and thought she didn't believe it, so he added, "What the slave family said is true. About a month ago, the slave family saw with their own eyes a woman in pink clothes wearing a white bamboo hat, and a man with a wooden box in his arms.
Entering Xiyan's room. The slave thought it was a thief, so he followed her. At that time, he vaguely heard her saying to Xiyan that she was here to buy paintings on the order of the empress."
"Really? Did you hear it wrong?"
"How is that possible? The slave family really listens to it."
Su Zhen raised her eyebrows at Xiao Chuhong, but the latter ignored her and drank calmly.
She looked at the painting again and said, "Miss Mu Yao, do you know who the woman in the painting is?"
"I don't know about this slave family."
The woman in Tang Yinchen's arms, Yirou, suddenly said, "The one holding the oil-paper umbrella is naturally sister Xiyan. As for the girl playing in the river, she is her old friend. It seems... her name is Xiaoyu."
Xiao Yu? Li Yu? That's Li Jieyu?! They actually know each other?
"Girl, are you sure?"
"Of course, when Miss Xiyan came to Jiyuefang, she only brought this painting. After she died, this painting should have been burned together, but Yueniang said she would keep it in her mind, so she kept it."
"That's it." Su Zhen nodded, "I remember that Xiyan came to Jiyuefang three years ago. I heard that she is from Jiangnan."
"Yes, there are also several paintings of hers in the Nu family, many of which depict famous scenery in the south of the Yangtze River."
"You all think she was not killed by Qiqi, so she must have offended someone." Su Zhen spoke in a casual tone, as if she was really chatting with them.
Mu Yao and Yirou looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.
Seeing their confusion, Mu Yao explained, "Xiyan never causes trouble and is considerate. Not only is she popular among everyone, but even women rarely have any ill will towards her."
"Isn't it possible? Hasn't she made any mistakes?"
"No."
Su Zhen asked casually, but received an unusually firm answer.
Strangely, Li Jieyu seems to have never made any mistakes and has an excellent reputation.
She pretended to accidentally kick the bottom of the table, making a slight sound, "Huh? There seems to be something down here."
"No, the room is cleaned every day."
They lifted up the tablecloth and saw a fallen porcelain doll under the table.
Yirou half-bent down and picked it out, "Huh? Isn't this Xiyan's doll? How could it be thrown here?"
Xiao Chuhong took a sip of his drink and quietly watched Su Zhen act.
"Miss Yirou, have you seen it?"
"Yes, this is Xiyan's treasure. I remember once seeing her maid accidentally drop it on the ground. Although it was not broken, that was the only time I saw Xiyan angry."
Mu Yao suddenly smiled and asked, "Mr. Tang, isn't this what you gave to Miss Xiyan?"
Tang Yinchen, who was suddenly called, touched his nose and said, "Don't talk nonsense, I have never seen it."
"Some time ago, Miss Xiyan often asked people about you. I thought you would marry Mr. Tang back home."
Listening to Mu Yao's teasing, Yirou's eyes became unkind, but considering that Tang Yinchen was present, it was hard to get angry, "Although sister Xiyan is not lucky, she will never die young again in the next life, and she will definitely meet her lover."
Mu Yao snorted and was about to say something when he saw Li Jiu sneaking to the door and suddenly pulling it open. The people outside did not notice for a moment and fell directly in and fell to the ground.
"Ouch, it hurts so much."
Although the eavesdropper was dressed in blue men's clothing, his body was so petite that he could tell at a glance that he was a girl.
She rubbed her aching arm, but didn't dare to raise her head. Just as she was about to run away, the silver knife was already placed on her shoulder.
"Who are you? Turn around!"
The woman stood up slowly, but she looked stupid, with a lot of black ash on her face and a mustache, making it difficult to distinguish her face. She pretended to be cross-eyed, stuck out her tongue and giggled, "Haha!
Daddy? Where are you! Daddy? Where is my daddy? Daddy, I want to eat meat buns!"
Su Zhen held her chin with one hand and couldn't help but find it funny as she watched the woman pretending to be stupid while her feet kept moving back to avoid Li Jiu's blade.
Yirou covered her lips, "What...what's going on? Who are you? Where did you come from?"
She bit her finger and smiled innocently, "Sister, have you seen my father?"
"..."
Tang Yinchen's expression wrinkled, why does this man look so familiar!
"Hey, who are you? How did you get in?"
"My dad brought me here. He said there are meat buns to eat here! Hey, where is my dad? Daddy? Where have you been?"
The woman escaped from Li Jiu's sword without leaving a trace, her heart beating rapidly. When she turned around, it was as if her feet were greased, and she ran away without daring to stop at all.
Su Zhen took out a gold leaf from the cloth bag on the table and threw it out carelessly. Everyone saw that the gold leaf passed over the woman's cheek and was directly embedded into the wooden pillar in front of her.
The woman was startled, her legs were weak, and she stood there without daring to move.
Li Jiu walked outside, grabbed her by the collar, and carried her back to the room.
"Hey! Presumptuous! Dog slave, let go!"
Li Jiu never understood how to show pity to women, so he just threw people on the ground.
She got up from the ground, pointed at Li Jiu and cursed, "What a slave! How dare you throw me! Believe it or not, I will take off your head!"
Li Jiu glanced at her coldly and stood back behind Xiao Chuhong.
Su Zhen held her chin in her hands, looked at her with a smile, and then said to Mu Yao and Mu Yao, "You two ladies, this... Young Master... is our distinguished guest. Could you please ask someone to prepare more?"
Here comes the drinks."
She deliberately emphasized the word 'gongzi', and seeing the other person getting even more angry, she laughed even more uncontrollably.
"Mr. Su, let me say goodbye first. Don't forget to come visit me some other time. I miss you all the time."
Tang Yinchen rubbed his arms numbly as he listened to her voice that was so soft to the bone.
"Don't worry, girl, I'll come to see you in two days."
Mu Yao smiled charmingly, traced the side of Su Zhen's face with his fingertips, put away the gold leaves on the table, and stood up from her arms. When passing by the woman, he deliberately bumped into her shoulder. She slipped and almost lost her balance.
"How dare you hit me!"
"Girl, this is not the place you should be. If you want to act up, please go home."
Yirou covered her lips with a handkerchief and smiled softly. She arranged Tang Yinchen's clothes and bowed to them, "I'm sorry to leave."
The woman took two steps back, fearing that Yirou would approach her again, but the latter ignored her at all and even closed the door for them after going out.
"Hey! It's so dirty! Why did you come to a place like this!"
She glanced at the four people in the room. Needless to say, Tang Yinchen and Su Zhen, the two women just now were almost glued to them and couldn't get off them! Unexpectedly, even Xiao Chuhong's clothes were a bit messy and had a lot of wine stains.
As for the guard who dared to attack her, he should be executed by Ling Chi!
In a word! They are not good things!
Su Zhen frowned, Jiyuefang is called Red Mansion, but it is not a dirty place.
"Your Highness Princess, if you don't like it here, you can go back to the palace!" This chapter has been completed!
